<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a pneumatic tire with which, when provided with a reinforcement layer formed by pulling a plurality of single-line steel wires into alignment and embedding the steel wires in rubber, workability can be improved when forming the tire, and tire durability performance can be improved, without increasing the tire weight. <P>SOLUTION: In the pneumatic tire including the reinforcement layer formed by pulling a plurality of single-line steel wires 10 into alignment and embedding them in rubber, each single-line steel wire 10 is given a twist around the axis thereof, and the wire surface twist angle θ with respect to the axial direction of the single-line steel wire 10 is 1-15°. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
